State of Mind
Lately I've been counting sheep
Haven't done that since I was a child
But I need more than a couple weeks
Just to get you off my mind
I've been reading books that I never would
Just to see if they can get me tired
I've been doing things that I know I shouldn't
Just to see if it'll pass the time
Always said I would never get down
Over some dumb love, dumb love
Well look at me now
Always said I would hold my head high
But I've been staring at the concrete ground for hours
at a time
How do I get out of
(ooh, ooh)
This stupid state of mind?
And put things in perspective?
(ooh, ooh)
'Cause my vision's really shifted and blurred
Since you walked out my life
Ohh, or maybe since you walked in
I just couldn't recognize it in the moment
How do I get out of
(ooh, ooh)
This stupid state of mind?
Sometimes I forget to breathe
Fists are clenched and I don't know why
Tension but there's no release
Wishing tears would fall, not dry
Everything unsaid running through my head
It's a never-ending feedback wire
Maybe I'm still caught up on the way you left
With no explanation or goodbye
Always said I would never get down
Over some dumb love, dumb love
Well look at me now
Always said I would hold my head high
But when I try my neck is killing me
I close my eyes you haunt my dreams
yeah
How do I get out of
(ooh, ooh)
This stupid state of mind?
And put things in perspective?
(ooh, ooh)
'Cause my vision's really shifted and blurred
Since you walked out my life
Ohh, or maybe since you walked in
I just couldn't recognize it in the moment
How do I get out of
(ooh, ooh)
This stupid state of mind?
No it's not what I expected
No it wasn't in the plan
To break myself apart
And put together again
No it's not what I had wanted
Don't know how I got here
I'm in denial
I should blame you
I blame the world
How do I get out of
This stupid state of mind?
And put things in perspective?
Cause my vision's really shifted and blurred
Since you walked out my life
Haven't done that since I was a child
But I need more than a couple weeks
Just to get you off my mind
I've been reading books that I never would
Just to see if they can get me tired
I've been doing things that I know I shouldn't
Just to see if it'll pass the time
Always said I would never get down
Over some dumb love, dumb love
Well look at me now
Always said I would hold my head high
But I've been staring at the concrete ground for hours
at a time
How do I get out of
(ooh, ooh)
This stupid state of mind?
And put things in perspective?
(ooh, ooh)
'Cause my vision's really shifted and blurred
Since you walked out my life
Ohh, or maybe since you walked in
I just couldn't recognize it in the moment
How do I get out of
(ooh, ooh)
This stupid state of mind?

And put things in perspective?
Cause my vision's really shifted and blurred
Since you walked out my life
